Correct Biomechanics Prevents Knee Arthritis

By Dr. Paul Anderson M.D.
Sports Medicine and Pain Expert

If you correct your lower limb biomechanics, then knee arthritis (OA) is possible one of the most preventable knee problems, with the medial ( inside) compartment usually affected. Foot overpronation and poor limb alignment during walking and running results in swinging knee adduction causing medial knee compression.

The knee adduction moment causes the development and progression of knee osteoarthritis. Correcting your biomechanics by reducing overpronation with functional valgus helps prevent the development of knee arthritis.
